Typical
LibDem Council [A “woke” council was branded “shameful” after rejecting calls for a military parade to mark the 80th anniversary of VE Day because it is “elitist”. Liberal Democrats denied residents the opportunity for a formal ceremony and instead suggested they host their own street parties. Commemorations across the country on May 8 will mark the end of World War 2 in Europe, including a church service attended by the Royal Family. But Dacorum Borough Council in Hertfordshire will not honour veterans, families, and local residents with a parade to mark the occasion. Shadow defence minister David Reed, a Royal Marines veteran, said the decision was an “outrageous” attempt to erase British history. “If it makes me elitist to celebrate the triumph of good over evil, freedom over tyranny and bravery over cowardice, then lock me up and throw away the key,” he said.] https://www.express.co.uk/news/uk/20...-ve-day-parade ![]() Last edited by arista; 09-04-2025 at 12:20 PM. |
